IMO, the most interesting quote in the article comes when he is talking about why he chose Galina and Viktor to coach him, and says he rejected Nikolai Morosov specifically because Morosov was coaching other elite skaters:

"Nikolai (Morozov) had Daisuke Takahashi, Miki Ando and was doing tons of programs for other skaters and dance teams," Weir explained. "I knew I needed something exclusive."

Clearly, he gave this interview before the Stephane Lambiel situation occurred.
